You really should search around, all the answers are here. But to get to the point, you also should get the Backup Launcher Gamma and need to install cIOS revision 7.

Thanks, I went back so many pages but I really can't find anything. All the topics seem to concern troubleshooting and compatibility issues, I don't see a how-to guide. Maybe I just can't recognize it because I am not familiar with the name of the software used.

Yea it doesn't seem to make much sense though. I think I found the thread I was looking for, it's a blog from this website I found on google haha.

Two quick questions though; to prevent bricking my Wii, I should stay away from any games that ask for updates, and stay away from "unofficial" games? Am I reading that right?

Also how should I deal with the current Wii update? Should I update before I install this, or just forget about going online until a update to the backup launcher is released?

Last question, all of this is completely reversible right? If a must-have title gets released, and the disc forces my Wii to update, I can easily erase all of this stuff and play on my Wii with no problem?

Don't update, it'll get rid of all your delicious hax. And yes, it's all reversible, in fact the update doesn't brick your Wii, it removes all the homebrew-related junk. Besides, if you wait for it, the community will probably find a workaround in no time and you'll be able to do everything you could on a clean latest firmware Wii.

I have not paid attention to the Wii's homebrew scene at all! This whole time it's just been me and my DS lite, while keeping my Wii mod free.

All I want to know: Using the homebrew channel now makes it now possible to play Wii backups without opening up your Wii and soldering a chip onto it?

And if that is possible can someone tell me what other steps are required other than installing the homebrew channel and burning games onto DVDs?

Just read the sticky (Sticky: Wii Loaders Issues and Answers : A full list of issues and answers for the backup loaders) at the very top of this forum (Wii - Hacking) and click djtaz signature within. Excellent instructions there.
